The System can be set up so that student can confirm their current contact details (Addresses, email, phone numbers) prior to accessing the Course Plan. This can be set up to be confirmed every study period, or once a year.
Warning:
When the system checks for potential timetable session clashes it will only assess scheduled units that have an unit status of Confirmed, Applied and Enrolled. All other statuses are excluded from the check.
